- Jo McGuire: We'll have to encourage him. Artists are very sensitive.
- Sam McGuire: Sensitive? Matt eats mud!
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: Look, Lizzie filled me in on what happened and I'm really sorry if what I said freaked you out. You know, the food comment. I totally didn't mean it.
- Miranda: Whatever, Gordo. Are we going to shoot this?
- Lizzie: Look I'm really sorry about what happened at the mall. You're right; it's-it's your body it's your life, and it's your business.But I... I guess I just said that stuff because I really care about you and y-you're scaring me.
- Miranda: I am?
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: You're scaring both of us. I mean, what's going on?
- Miranda: I don't know. It's like all of a sudden everything just feels out of control. My homework's piling up, my parents are talking to me about my future... I mean, things that used to feel so easy just now seem so hard.
- Lizzie: Well, call me blonde, but what does all that have to do with losing weight?
- Miranda: I guess eating's the only thing I have any control over. Like all this other stuff just happens to me but eating's something I have a say in.
- Lizzie: That's not true.
- Miranda: But that's how it feels.
- Lizzie: Miranda, that's why you have us. I mean, all this stuff that you're talking about, all this pressure I'm going through it, too.
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: Ditto.
- Lizzie: You know, what really helps me deal is you guys. And I know, no matter what, you and Gordo are always going to be there for me
- Miranda: But doesn't it ever feel like sometimes it's just too much?
- Lizzie: Try every day.
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: That's what we have each other for.
- Lizzie: I mean, and no matter what we're always going to be there for you.
- Lizzie: What are you staring at?
- Matt McGuire: Watch a real artist at work.
- Lizzie: Whatever you're doing - stop.
- [Matt starts to draw at super speed. Lizzie looks weirdly at him, while Gordo snorts]
- Matt McGuire: Behold.
- [shows his quick work, which is very good]
- Matt McGuire: I call this one... "Girl who Makes Me Hurl".
- [Gordo laughs]
- Lizzie: Well, I call this one "A Brother About to Run for His Life"!
- [chases Matt]
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: Look, I know that magazines these days are telling girls to get thinner, and telling me I have to be more muscular, and for whatever reason, Miranda's buying into, and I'm not. Uh, I'm not saying that you are, of course, you see, I just think that you have a better handle at this situation than I have, which is why I think you should talk to her.
- Lizzie: Gordo, wait.
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: What?
- Lizzie: Okay, I wanna talk to her just as bad as you do. Okay? In fact, we're going to the mall tomorrow, I'll talk to her then.
- David 'Gordo' Gordon: Wo... That's... that's great. Because I-I think she needs to know that we're her friends, and if she ever, ever needs anyone to talk to, that we're her go-to-peeps, through thick, through thin, we'll always be there! And I gotta tell you, that the whole idea of you talking to her is a HUGE relief, 'cause frankly, I have no idea what to say.
- [Lizzie looks a little off, but claps him on his back, trying to comfort him]
